PROVIDED THE LEASE IS ON LONG – TERM BASIS (PREFERABLY FOR 25 YEARS AND NOT LESS THAN 5 YEARS AT LEAST)

29. SUCCESS STORY of 13 Shabar families of Bankura who by cultivating mango trees in an orchard on leased land found hope of generating livelihood

30. The land was completely barren and land development under Mahatma Gandhi NREGS raised hope and ultimately could change the meaning of life for the Shabar families united under the banner of Lipidiri Lodda Shabar Self-help Group This has not only given the families hope of self-reliance, this has empowered them to take on the challenges of livelihood generation in their own hands. 

41. EXAMPLE 4
Vermi-composting uses earthworms to turn organic wastes into very high quality compost. In ideal conditions worms can produce at least their own weight of organic matter in a day. The micro-organisms in the worm casts promote healthy plant growth.

Nursery raising is associated with MGNREGA from its very onset. Here work is provided to the women members of SHG under sector 2 i.e drought proofing . These schemes are taken up by almost all the blocks. Nursery schemes has given the rural women an opportunity to change their lives as they become financially independent ,have the opportunity to work collectively and utilize the wages received in their need and utilize their share of the produce .

52. Prerequisites :

Awareness among the SHG members:-
SHG s should be made aware of the of the different aspect of NREGA, starting from placing demand in 4(A), muster roll preparation etc.
They should be encouraged to utilize their 25% share productively which will give earnings in future.
For eg. : If a certain SHG has its own land , they may be encouraged to go for block plantation with forest varieties which require very less care, and will yield good amount of timber in future. The money earned this way will be distributed among the members of the same SHG.

54. Horticultural crops
Horticulture on public land is permissible ,where saplings required will be raised by SHGs.
2. SHGs having own or leased land on long term basis preferably for 25 years and not less than 5years can grow horticultural crops.
For eg :lemon garden

55. Benefits of such a project:-
Horticultural crops
Benefits of such a project:-
1. Fruit bearing ,hence will generate income.
2. As vegetative propagated saplings so fruit will come very early.
3. Market is good
4. In the following years only maintenance is required.
5. In certain blocks it can act as live fencing which will generate income as well as restrict the movement of elephants.

56. Horticultural crops Intercropping:

57. Social forestry schemes:
Social forestry schemes may be taken up in all the blocks. Saplings required may be obtained from the SHGs, prior planning should be made for the same before head. SHGs may be engaged for these schemes for planting as well as maintenance. According to the letter from Commissioner, MGNREGA, vide memo no. 2755(20)comm./ NREGA, Dated: , there is no objection if maintenance is extended for eighteen months following 6 months of project intervention. Moreover ,although live fencing is advocated, there is no objection if labour intensive bamboo made gabion structures are used for fencing as well
